The Adult Hip Patient - Version 10.
About this Event

Do you find differential diagnosis with some hip and groin presentations difficult?

Want a clear understanding of how best to approach FAI Syndrome?

Are you frustrated with hip pain patients, who fail to progress, and keep

coming back with recurring problems?


Hybrid Course

This new Hybrid course will focus on assessment and management of the Adult Hip

Patient. All the course theory will be sent to you approx. 10 days before the course

date and you will be able to study this in your own time (Equivalent to day 1 of the

course).

On the course day, Benoy will focus on practical skills, assessment

techniques hands-on techniques and interactive discussion, to maximise the

F2F learning experience.

“Emily is a 32-year-old office worker and regular gym-goer. She had right anterior hip

pain 10 months ago which was diagnosed as hip flexor strain and it responded

favourably with previous physio. Her right hip pain has returned since she started

cycling to work and she has been referred to physio. Her recent pelvis X-ray has

shown acetabular cross-over sign suggestive of pincher FAI in both her hips.”


How do you clinically determine if the X-ray results are the true source of her symptoms and not an incidental finding?

What are her treatment options? What is the best rehab strategy?

When would you consider a surgical referral?

Like a lot of clinicians, you may see patients like Emily presenting with anterior hip and groin

pain in private practice, sports medicine clinics or a primary care setting.

The hip and groin area is often viewed as a “black box” because of the complex anatomy

and overlapping pain referral patterns. Whether it is the week-end warrior, yoga enthusiast

or the competing triathlete, accurate diagnosis and management of hip and groin pain can

be challenging. Conditions like hip impingement syndromes, labral tears, chondral lesions

and dysplasia are being increasingly identified as cause of hip and groin pain in the

physically active population between the ages of 18-45. Although, various treatment

methods are reported there is a lack of consensus on the role of conservative management.



CONTENT


This one-day workshop is designed for all therapists who work with physically active patients

with anterior hip and groin pain. The course aims to provide a clear, honest and

evidence-based look, combined with more than 25 years of clinical experience at what does

and does not work in the assessment and conservative management of the active hip

patient. A key goal would be for you to leave with things that both simplify the hip for you and

help differential diagnoses what is going on, both articular and extra-articular pathologies of

the hip.

This course is appropriate for qualified physiotherapists as well as other

health professionals dealing with hip and groin pain.

What will you gain by attending the course?

- Overview of the complex interaction of the groin and the hip joint including femoro-

acetabular impingement, labral lesions, extra-articular pathologies and tendinopathy.

- A detailed and a systematic physical examination will be covered using a novel and

evidence-based tool (The layering concept) for the assessment of the adult hip

patient and a solid understanding of differential diagnosis

- Current conservative management of hip pain including hip impingement syndromes

and clinical insights on managing complex presentation

- Practical application of rehab exercises including progression of hip stabilisation

exercises and dynamic mobility exercises for the hip

- Integration of the theory, current evidence and treatment tools with case studies
